Against the Indiana Lieutenant
Governor.

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. l7.-Judge Ayers,
of the civil circuit court. this morning.
gave his decision in the proceedings
against Lieutenant Governor Robertson.
He held that the court had jurisdiction of
the ease, and also that there is no provis-
ion of the constitution whereby the Lieut.
enant governor can be elected at any other
time than when the governor is elected;
that is every four years. He granted the
writ of injunction against Col. Robertson
to restrain him from presiding at the
joint convention Wednesday. In con-
clusion the Judge said he assumed the
jurisdiction and made the decision he did
so there could be an appeal to the supreme
court at once. He believed that upon
such an important question the opinion of
that court should be had.

One day Mr.. Reade wanted to con-
suit a living book, and asked me to cd
vertise for a man who had been employed
as a keeper in a lunatic asylum. Two or
three days later on / was hurrying down
Piccadilly toward Bolton row, accom-
panied by the most promising of the
yer to my advertisement. The ex-
keeper having first been regaled with
lunch, was put on the rack. How we
.'heckled'' that unfortunate man on that
frightfully warm summers day; how we
proved him with all manner Of insidious
and out of the way questions anent hand
cuffs and leglocks, douching, stomach
pumping, straight w~aistcoating, plunge
bathing and padded rooming, it would
require the pen of Charles Reade himself
adequately to describe. A couple of
hours after the questioning began I found
myself conveying the ex-keeper to the
hall door-he carrying in his fist a hand
some gold honorarium. while with the
other hand he YEARLY mopped at his
forehead.-St. james Gazette.

"How 10 it," rural friend asked me,
''that the west aide OF all the uptown
avenues is the most popular with the
public? I have noticed that all the shops
are on that side and all the people walk
on that side. Do the shops draw the peo-
pie, or Is IL the people who have attracted
the shops thersf" ~
had never thought Of 1t before, but
when the matter was thus brought to my
attention, the latter argument appeared
to be the most plausible n The west
Is undoubtedly the favorits side ON the
venues Even on Fifth avenue the bulk
of the p~romenading Is done on that side.
And the secret Is probably not Tar to seek.
The west is the shady aide Of the long
streets in the afternoons. The public
does most of its strolling and shopping at
that period of the day, and naturally
seeks the shade to do 1t in. So trade has
grown up on the west side, rents have
gone up, and the anomaly is presented Of
a few feet of roadway making an ex-
tremely important difference in the for
tunes of the people who have settled on
either side of il.
Iu the cross town streets the same rule
may be traced out. The south side of
these thoroughfares is shaded in the
afternoon, and on the south side most of
the business of the streets is done. Four
tenth and Twenty-third, the two great
shopping streets, present in this respect
an ever more marked contrast than the
avenues which cross them. In Grand
street the south side is by far the busiest.
II is only when you get into the whole
sale sections Of the town that you find the
pressure of trade fairly equal on both
sides. Where retailing is carried on the
convenience Of the public has made a
rule which Is likely to be followed till
there is no more room on the popular
side, when business rivalry will have to
develop the other in self defense. Al

the head Of a slave every morning, in or.

moderate historians place the number Of
murders that he ordered or committed

fractions was to have men and women,
whom he caused to be stripped before
him, thrown upon iron hooks fastened in
a high wall. These unfortunates re-
manned hanging by the flesh, suffered
frightfully for a long time in this horri-
